You can’t be taking this video seriously…can you?...let’s see firstly it’s again…speculation…the tag of the video is called…”CTL: Is Lovie on the hot seat?”...they are posing a question not saying they actually know anything…then they conveniently post the Bears offensive rankings but rather surprising fail to do the same with the defensive ranking…so that is real balanced journalism…then for the kicker and to show just how much horse crap this video is they go on to talk about Lovie’s facial hair like a bunch of school girls…I mean it’s like there are inside the franchise and know what is going to be important to Emery when it comes to making his decision /sarcasm…

Guys have opinions on Lovie and that is cool…I don’t feel it is right that we have consistently lost to the packers over the last few years…I don’t feel it is right where the offence has been over many years…I don’t even feel there is any way to get away from the fact that Lovie is poor when it comes to making offensive hires…but IMO Lovie is far from the problem with this team…Emery needs to take control of the hiring of staff and give the Oline the talent it needs to execute and offence…if he can do that he has the perfect HC to continue to have an elite D which would be a perennial playoff contender.

You have listed a number of significant things, from losing to the Packers to bad hiring. I would also add his culpability in the personnel decisions and roster talent, because there is some.

Now to me those are some significant strikes and I ask this without be accusatory.

What is it that you think Lovie does well?_________________Adopt a Bear: DT Will Sutton [T, S, TFL, FF]

My main issue with all of this is that the Bears have been in the Stone Age offensively forever. We are embarrassingly behind the times in terms of talent innovation and play calling.

I really don't think hiring someone's QB coach who is a first time play caller is going to fix that.

If we won't to move from the Stone Age we need to make a bold move to create change. Hiring another Martz or Tice simply is not going to change a culture._________________Adopt a Bear: DT Will Sutton [T, S, TFL, FF]

The debate over whether Lovie Smith should keep his job continues to rage, after a 7-1 start, and while I do not think that Lovie Smith is a terrible coach he is a victim of the times. The NFL has turned into an offensive league and Lovie Smith simply cannot do offense. In 9 years he has not been able to reach higher that 15 in the offensive rankings and the last 3 years we have been 24 or lower. We have had 4 offesnive coordinators in that time and we look like we will have a 5th very soon. Lovie, when it comes to offense, is an Atari mind in an Xbox world.

The Bears need an offensive revolution if they are going to compete with the Packers.

This will not happen if they simply hire another retread OC like Martz or if they go and get yet another 1st time play caller like Tice. Those are not bold moves, those are not moves that change the culture of the team those are not moves that will move us out of the stone age on offense and truly make the Bears relevant again. Those type of moves have failed 4 times in the past under this regime.

The Bears need a bold move. They need to bring in an offensive head coach that has called plays and had success and who can change the culture at Halas Hall of not drafting, developing or promoting offensive success. They need someone who will be innovative and adapt to the personnel and the situation. They need someone who will finally stop band aid fixing the offense and bring BALANCE to the team. This can be accomplished by going out and getting the best and the brightest offesnsive mind and hiring them to be the head coach and our leader, because these guys don't leave where they are being successful to become an OC.

The Bears need a culture change at Halas Hall, not another half measure or OC that will be fired in 2 years.

In today's NFL you cannot say we don't do offense well._________________Adopt a Bear: DT Will Sutton [T, S, TFL, FF]

You can't possibly know that...Sean Payton wasn't even the OC in Dallas when the Saints hired him as HC...

There are plenty of guys out there who are QB coaches just waiting for an opportunity.

To the same degree that you don't know that there are a bunch of QB coaches who would be good OCs.

I don't know if LaFluer is a good play caller or an OC.

I know that Rick Dennison is a good play caller and OC.

There is only one way we are going to get Dennison and it is not going to be to offer him our OC position.

This is a cultural problem with the Bears and maybe you are right and Emery has the golden eye for OC talent but let's keep in mind he has NEVER hired a coach before and was brought in here for his ability to draft and not assemble a coaching staff._________________Adopt a Bear: DT Will Sutton [T, S, TFL, FF]

I can see you didnt even bother to read the work of the writers I posted. As I figured. Why do I need to spoon feed this information to you? (Yes two of those guys actually have insider information on that video you thought was garbage)

You know Brad Biggs talked about what you were saying that Emery should take control of the hiring. Someone asked him that question. He said that 1. Lovie doesnt have an infinite number of hiring. 2. Emery will not force a OC down Lovie's throat. Even Angelo let him have the last say._________________
^^ props to LBC on the sig

I think Phil Emery has a pretty clear picture of what he wants to do right now. Whether Im right or wrong there are going to be alot of coaches moving about shortly after these last two games. So moving quickly is a good idea._________________

You spoon fed me info… someone has a mighty high opinion of themselves considering what they have to back up their “inside info”…anyone who has any idea about how the media actually works will tell you that video is a crock...but I guess you can't see that.
